I'm looking for large type oriental type chickens to breed into my flock to improve size and stamina.
Looking for Malay, Indio Gigante, Liege Fighter, Hmong, crossbreeds OK.
At least a doz. shipping to Florida.
Any help will be much appreciated.
I've been looking for these a couple of years.
Not much luck. Some promised but dropped the ball.
Please let me know of anyone who breeds these chickens.
Thank you
Stay safe.
Blessings
This is NOT my picture. I just posted it for attention.
Does anybody raise or have knowledge of this breed? There is very little information on the internet and nobody who has personal experience with them. Greenfire (GFF) sells them as a very recent import.
I have a weakness for black and...
Crazy chicken people, speak up.
Why do you keep chickens?
Do people roll their eyes when you show pictures of your chickens or suddenly have something important to do when you talk about chickens?
Did you ever have someone say "it's just a chicken" when you tell them about a loss?
Apparently...
About a month ago, I purchased some feed from a breeder who buys in bulk from the mill. Chicks tarter.medicated for 1/2 of feed store prices. I really don't know the nutritional analysis.
What I have noticed in the past week or more, is that some of the chicks are developing a frizzled feather...
I was just wondering if anyone had had difficulty contacting Ideal online or by phone. For the past couple of days, their website would not load and when I tried calling, my call did not go through and their 800 # is busy all the time. I have chicks ordered and was concerned they shut their...
I think Murphy's Law was based on chickens (and goats, to a degree).
If something COULD happen, it WILL happen!
This is a little story about LC, short for Lucky Chick, an ordinary 16 week old red naked neck pullet. She is one of a flock of 20 chicks her age.
A couple of weeks ago, I had to go...
I'm fairly new to chicken keeping and have had a few roosters. Some were nice, some not so much.
Presently, I have 2 separate pens of a mixed lot of egg layers. Pee Wee is the rooster over the ones I let free range because they are larger, older and more aware of their surroundings. All 12...
We had a surprise hatch on Christmas Eve. I noticed a pullet claimed a nest box and became broody. I have no idea who the moms are. I really never expected a hatch since the broody is a nine month old Black Copper Marans pullet. She sat tight on the eggs and tolerated no interference from the...
I put this in the emergency forum also. I'm just hoping to get some help ASAP
My normally loud boisterous goose is definitely not well.

She is an African Grey not quite a year old I have 3 females and they have been laying for the past 3 months or so. A few days ago I found a shell-less egg trampled in the pen. I don't know who laid it.

Someone gave me a bunch of mixed chicks. Father was purebred white Ameraucana mother a Rhode Island Red mix.
13 of them are mostly white/splash and one is a buff with a white head. One looks light blue splash or maybe just a dingy white? Legs are white, pink or grey. Some have pea comb, some...
OK, so I have to start from scratch. Bobcats have totally wiped me out.
Beefed up the pens, coops and added electric wire. Hopefully this should do it.
I have asked around for started pullets and now chicks are pouring in.
My friends have given me more 1 to 3 week old babies than I can possibly...
Tonight I was tucking the ducks, geese and chickens in for the night. I fed them, brought them treats gave them fresh water. Since it was still light, I decided to sit in their pen for a bit. They have not been allowed to free range for a week. It looked crowded in there though no one was...
